pciutils build failure with older binutils

pciutils build failure with older binutils

[Baruch Siach]

Hi Martin,

Since commit 511122b83c12 ("Filters now support partially specified
classes and also prog-if's") binutils older than 2.35 can't build
pciutils 3.8.0 when SHARED=yes.

cc -O2 -Wall -W -Wno-parentheses -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden   -c -o filter.o filter.c
/tmp/ccLtucRG.s: Assembler messages:

/tmp/ccLtucRG.s:8: Error: multiple versions [`pci_filter_parse_slot@@LIBPCI_3.8'|`pci_filter_parse_slot@LIBPCI_3.3'] for symbol `pci_filter_parse_slot_v38'

/tmp/ccLtucRG.s:12: Error: multiple versions [`pci_filter_match@@LIBPCI_3.8'|`pci_filter_match@LIBPCI_3.3'] for symbol `pci_filter_match_v38'

The bug appears to be gas/23840[1].

binutils 2.35 was released on July 2020, so many production systems
still use broken toolchains.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,
